The Dogs Allowed doggie fun weekend is a weekend of fun and entertainment for dog owners, enthusiasts, and people of all ages - with a focus on participation. The venue and times for 2009 will be the same as this year's event with more demonstrations, more stalls and more competitions. We've listened to the feedback from 2008 and shifted the date to June 13 and 14, so at least the rain will be warmer this time.

If you would like to have a stall, put on a demonstration, or sponsor an event in 2009 please click here to contact us.

Make sure you get a memento of the day with a professional portrait photograph of you and your dog taken at the event. Your image is printed and presented in a mount on the spot for £15, courtesy of RGB Photography.

As you can imagine, having many dogs about could easily get out of hand so we ask that our guests follow the following three rules:

1.Dogs must be kept on a lead at all times.
2.Dogs must be dog and human friendly.
3.You must scoop your dog's poop (bags and bins provided).

Refreshments are available in Thirlestane Castle Tearooms, from the Hog Roast stand, from the mobile hot food bar, from the beer tent, and from the Mudhoney cafe stall.

Volunteer stewards for the weekend are provided by
Lauder Rotary Club

We invite you to spend a weekend at Dogs Allowed, enjoying the performances and events on offer, talking to other dog enthusiasts, and enjoying the beautiful grounds and setting of Thirlestane castle. We look forward to seeing you in May 2009
